Markus Baum

PARTNER, ROLAND BERGER

"The most important thing is to take software out of the usual product creation process. It needs to be planned completely independent. You need to have a system engineering approach, or you cannot control the complexity."

![Jürgen Döllner Sharing the Roadmap-1](https://seerene-4856350.hs-sites.com/hs-fs/hubfs/J%C3%BCrgen%20D%C3%B6llner%20Sharing%20the%20Roadmap-1.jpeg?width=1500&height=1500&name=J%C3%BCrgen%20D%C3%B6llner%20Sharing%20the%20Roadmap-1.jpeg "Jürgen Döllner Sharing the Roadmap-1")

Prof. Dr. Jürgen Döllner

Hasso Plattner Institute

"Generative AI is something that changes software development in a fundamental way, not incrementally. This could signal the end of programming as we know it. It will shift our focus to specifying what the solution should do and not how to implement it."

![Automotive_Seerene_Johannes-Bohnet](https://seerene-4856350.hs-sites.com/hubfs/Automotive_Seerene_Final-c-Sebastian_Rost-68_kleiner.jpeg "Automotive_Seerene_Johannes-Bohnet")

Dr. Johannes Bohnet

SEERENE, CEO & FOUNDER

"Generative A.I. will get rid of much of the repetitive and boring work for developers, meaning a large boost in productivity. But at the same time, there is a big risk. Such as that a single prompt could change a large portion of the code base or create incomprehensible complexity. Gen AI will create a lot of code, but also complexity, so it is necessary for corporations to monitor this. "

Dr. Inga von Bibra

MEMBER OF THE EXECUTIVE BOARD, MICROSOFT GERMANY

"Artificial intelligence will change the way we work. It is already the fastest adopted business technology ever... There are 200-300 million lines of code in the modern vehicle. That is a level of complexity where people struggle to keep up. With generative AI, this can already be reduced by 20%."
